Musical comedian Bo Burnham included references to Jeff Bezos in his 2021 Netflix special, titled Bo Burnham: Inside. The special has two songs that are inspired by him, called “Bezos I” and “Bezos II.” These parodic songs became very popular, especially the first one, which became part of a trend on social media app TikTok. As of December 2021, the TikTok audio for “Bezos I” has over 650,000 videos made using it. The most popular videos using this audio have around 30-50 million views, amassing millions of “likes” each.
This is not the only time Bezos has been made fun of in the media, though. There have been several skits on the television show Saturday Night Live that are digs at the businessman. The most recent one took place on October 3, 2021, called “Billionaire Star Trek,” which imagines an episode of Star Trek with Bezos as the ship’s commander. This is a clear reference to Bezos and his space adventures.
The relatively ~simple~ lyrics to the Bo Burnham songs go:
———-
Bezos I:
CEO, entrepreneur
Born in 1964
Jeffrey, Jeffrey Bezos
CEO, entrepreneur
Born in 1964
Jeffrey, Jeffrey Bezos
C’mon Jeffrey, you can do it
Pave the way, put your back into it
Tell us why, show us how
Look at where you came from, look at you now
Zuckerberg and Gates and Buffett
Amateurs can f****** s*** it
F*** their wives, drink their blood
C’mon Jeff, get ’em!
Aah!
———-
Bezos II:
Jeffrey Bezos
Jeffrey Bezos
Jeffrey Bezos
Ugh!
Jeffrey Bezos
Jeffrey Bezos
Jeffrey Bezos
You did it!
Jeffrey Bezos
Jeffrey Bezos
Jeffrey Bezos
Congratulations!
Jeffrey Bezos
Jeffrey Bezos
Jeffrey Bezos
Oh!
